I'm not sure the intention was "fake Mediterranean" - but it is indeed located in the US! (In Newport, Rhode Island, to be exact: "The Breakers" = one of the mansions of the Vanderbilt family...) Thanks and over to you, Otto! I was referring to a sort of Hirst Castle kind of kitsch than what war explains as a probably more serious rebuilding of mediterranean renaissance, sorry for that sweeping statement there. I will try to find something tomorrow Edited September 10, 2019 by otto.f 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 Hi otto.f, Take a look here "Do you know the world ?" -- Competition --. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
otto.f Posted September 13, 2019 Share #18902 Posted September 13, 2019 Sorry for the delay, I'm happy though that I was soon enough to prevent the (always appreciated) reminder from Michael Geschlecht 😊 I hope this one is difficult enough, even for Dirk, although I'm aware entering one of his favorite domains here. Of which complex is this garden a part of? Welcome, dear visitor!

Dirk Van der Herten Posted September 13, 2019 Share #18910 Posted September 13, 2019 I've never been there, but the initials CFM made it easy, after "Center for the Future of Museums" was quickly excluded 🙂 Welcome, dear visitor!

Dirk Van der Herten Posted September 15, 2019 Share #18915 Posted September 15, 2019 Western Iran, to be more precise. Nearby are the ruins of the capital of an ancient empire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.f Posted September 15, 2019 Share #18916 Posted September 15, 2019 Is this perhaps Tarbiat street in Tabriz? Or do they have these sort of ramblas in every city? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted September 15, 2019 Share #18917 Posted September 15, 2019 We're more than 500 km. southeast of Tabriz. The sign just in front of the building to the left reads مسجد جامع , "Friday Mosque". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirk Van der Herten Posted September 16, 2019 Share #18919 Posted September 16, 2019 You still have to go about 260 km. to the south. The city is mentioned - although under another name than the contemporary one - in the Bible and in the biographies of Alexander the Great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.f Posted September 17, 2019 Share #18920 Posted September 17, 2019 Couldn’t believe this is Hamadan, because I see a very modern city and I can’t find an ancient name that I recognize from the bible. But it should be Hamadan then since these minarets appeared after many searches Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
